Patient Responsibility

1. Appointments - I am pleased to serve you and will strive to meet your needs. We will reserve time in our schedule to accommodate your needs. It is important that you keep your appointed time. Should an emergency arise to preempt that, a 24 hour notice is expected so the time will be available for someone else in need.

2. Telephone Calls - Only a reasonable number of phone calls can be returned per day. Our staff is trained to assist you so that we can care for our scheduled patients with a minimum of interruptions. Emergency calls will be handled immediately.

2. Prescriptions - We treat illnesses and prescribe medications only after a through history and physical examination. For your safety and in keeping with acceptable medical practices, you must keep your follow-up appointments.

2. Medication Refills-Refills should be made during business hours. Please give 48 hours notice.

3. Acute Illness & Injuries -Require an office visit for proper evaluation and treatment.
